Default screen printing on foam caps

I need some help with screen printing on foam caps. Im not sure what inks work the best. Plus there is a drying issue as the cap is foam and mesh. I know i need to have the hat platten set up. Any one with some ideas?

I recommend a low bleed polyester ink to help prevent dye mitigation. Use the curing recommendations that comes with the ink.
